Rampart Shooting Range Cleanup - 25 April 09

[Aloha_Shooter]

I headed out that way this morning but the temperatures and light rain after breakfast made it seem improbable that the cleanup was a go. By the time things seemed to clear up a little, I was already engaged in a number of errands. Can anyone tell me if it DID take place or has been rescheduled?

I know there is a dumpster up there, at least there was yesterday..............

Yup, we were there....visibility was at around 15-20ft most of the day...cleaned up a metric shit-ton of shotgun shells and various items that might have been targets at one time...saw a water heater and a microwave, though all that remained of either was just sheet metal...

About 3-3:30pm, the clouds moved out and we could actually see again!

Too bad the weather scared off a few ninnys

Although it was a little chilly and wet, we still had approximately 60 people show up. As you can see, we filled the dumpster and than some.

There will likely be a few more cleanups this Summer. There is plenty left to cleanup, so please spread the word and let's keep this range off the endangered species list.

On behalf of those of us that couldn't make it...
I'd just like to take a moment to thank everyone that pitched in...

THANK YOU!

I could not make it due to a previous commitment (I was out of town),
but a sincere thanks to anyone that participated...

Thank you for your good work. I used to shoot there when I lived in the Springs. I always took out way more than I brought but some people cannot clean up after themselves.

I guess there was one good thing that came out of it. After going once on a warm Saturday afternoon I was so horrified by the unsafe behavior that joined a gun club. First Izak Walton, then BLGC.

Thanks guy!

I didn't know about this or I would have allotted time for it...I was actually there when ya'all showed up. I was the guy with a big gash on his forehead from rushing a shot
